Heavy numbing,
Painful smiles,
Misspoken words,
Love lost in denial,

Just smile and nod,
Never showing,
Love or fear,
I know it’s growing.

Tearing apart,
Ripping me to shreds,
Misspoken words,
Better left unsaid…

Hide them away,
Trap them all in a box,
Forget they exist,
Hidden at all costs.

Just smile and nod,
Hide my heart in my hands,
Misspoken words,
Buried in the Sands.

Away from you,
Never to be known,
The feelings I harbor,
Have just grown and grown.

Holding them in is torture,
Admitting them kills,
Thanks to misspoken words,
We’ll never know the thrills…
